Hard drives with a Serial ATA (SATA) connector were introduced to replace IDE and Enhanced IDE (Parallel ATA) drives. SATA removes the master-slave relationship between hard drives (parallel), as each drive connects directly to a SATA host adapter or port (serial).

The VM90 is a slightly smaller and lower priced version of the VM92. VM90 has a large 9 inch widescreen display that works well as a vehicle display, but can also be used as a secondary desktop monitor and indoor kiosk display.

The touch screen driver takes only a minute to install. It comes with an AC-DC adapter and remote control.

The VM90 does not have a TV tuner or speakers, but comes with AV connectors.
